Kennedy Sinclair never dreamed
she'd own a pie shop and an orchard in a small town like Destiny Bay. But
nestled between the mountains and the Pacific Ocean, it's the perfect place to
cross something off her "Life's short so eat the icing first" list
and start her life over from scratch. Her shop, Sweetie Pies, is famous for its
hot, flaky apple turnovers and sinfully delicious deep dish pie. For Kennedy
though, nothing is more enticing than the tall, strapping slice of temptation
who keeps coming back for more.

Luke Callahan is determined to
make his hard cider business a success. With his beloved father's cider recipe
and the opportunity of a lifetime in his grasp, he'll stop at nothing to get
this deal done. There's just one catch: he needs Kennedy's apples. At first, he
thinks it'll be as easy as pie to charm those apples right off her trees. But
Kennedy isn't falling for his tender charms or his wicked ways. When the
negotiations start heating up, so do the feelings they have for each other. And
it takes just one kiss to seal the deal…

Kennedy and Luke had an amazing chemistry. Yes, they have an odd relationship, however, it makes it all the more intriguing to read about.

I highly loved the plot line of this novel. I have never read a novel even remotely close to having a similar plot line as this novel did. It is quirky and cute while still manages to stay sexy and romantic at the same time.

This novel definitely did not disappoint. I highly recommend every pick it up, and start reading it today.

4/5 Stars!

Excerpt:

LAST KISS OF SUMMER BLITZ
EXCERPT

Kennedy
rested her elbows on the counter and leaned forward. “You cook, clean, and make
house calls? Be still, my heart.”

“I aim to
please.” He dried off his hands and brought two steaming mugs of coffee to the
counter. “Which is why I was trying to be quiet, so you could get another few
minutes of sleep, before I surprised you in bed.” He grinned. It was a wicked
grin. “Again.”

Luke had done
more than surprise her last night; he’d spoiled her for other men. Sure, he was
an incredible lover, but it was the tender moments in between that made her nervous.

This thing
between them couldn’t last. She knew that. She also understood that if he was
looking for something more permanent, she wouldn’t be the kind of woman to inspire
that kind of commitment. She was unable to do it with her perfect match, or
even her own mother. The one person who was supposed to love her
unconditionally. Which left Kennedy painfully afraid that she was missing that
elusive quality that led to forever.

Finding out
that she was right, that she was unlovable, from a man who obviously had an
incredible capacity to love, as she’d seen with his friends and family, would
be too painful to survive. So she took the moment for what it was, committing
to memory the warm aroma of the coffee, the way the sun cast a glassy haze over
the kitchen, and the sleepy expression on his face that made him look softer.
More relaxed. Like this was where he was supposed to be.

In this
kitchen—with her.

Kennedy was
becoming more attached—she could feel it. The way he treated her, the way he
made her feel, even the way he looked at her, like right now, as if she were
special. Which made her feel special.
